JCP Journey #2 : The Blog & The First Order

If you missed Part 1, read itย here.

The Blog

Augย 2014

So after sending over 50 Facebook and Instagram messages to my friends and family abroad. Around 20 persons said they would be interested in purchasing.ย 

Having learned from my previous business ventures, I decided against wasting time trying to get up the perfect website. So I just added a page to myย blogย with a PayPal link. I think it was a Monday, so I had a special sale to purchase until Friday. I remember going to bed that night, expecting to wake up at least 10 orders! ๐Ÿคญ

Hahaha, for the next couple of days, we hadย ZERO orders!ย I was crushed and started toย lose hopeย ๐Ÿ˜ž

The First Order

Then I got an email notification, on August 20, 2014 (almost 7 years ago) that we got ourย first-everย Jamaican Care Packages order!ย  From Michelle, we went to prep school together and I haven't spoken to her in ages.ย 

Upcoming Part 3ย - Rory's Packs the 1st Package!
